AS568-001 O-Ring Dimensions and Tolerances
An AS568 o-ring is specified by its inside diameter and cross-section; the outside diameter follows from them. Tolerances are the AS568 free-state limits, measured uninstalled.
| Dimension | Inch | Millimetre |
|---|---|---|
| Inside diameter (ID) | 0.0290 ± 0.0039 | 0.740 ± 0.100 |
| Cross-section (CS / W) | 0.0400 ± 0.0031 | 1.020 ± 0.080 |
| Outside diameter (OD) | 0.1090 | 2.780 |
OD = ID + 2 × CS. Elastomer parts are measured free-state and relax over time; the tolerances above are manufacturing limits, not the installed dimensions.
AS568-001 O-Ring Size in Millimetres
AS568 is an inch standard. These are the same dimensions converted exactly (1 in = 25.4 mm) — an AS568 size is not interchangeable with an ISO 3601 metric size that happens to be close.
| Dimension | Inch | Millimetre |
|---|---|---|
| Nominal ID × CS | 0.0290 × 0.0400 in | 0.740 × 1.020 mm |
| Nominal OD × CS | 0.1090 × 0.0400 in | 2.780 × 1.020 mm |
Metric figures are conversions of the AS568 inch dimensions, rounded to 0.01 mm as the source data carries them. A metric o-ring called out as 25 × 3.5 mm is a different part.
AS568 O-Ring Sizes Closest to AS568-001
Ordered by how close the inside diameter is, across every cross-section series. A near-ID match in a different cross-section will not seal the same gland.
| Property | Inside Ø | Property | Property | Property | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Size | in | mm | Cross-section, in | Outside Ø, in | ID difference, mm |

| AS568-102 | 0.0490 | 1.240 | 0.1030 | 0.2550 | +0.500 |
| AS568-003 | 0.0560 | 1.420 | 0.0600 | 0.1760 | +0.680 |
| AS568-004 | 0.0700 | 1.780 | 0.0700 | 0.2100 | +1.040 |
| AS568-103 | 0.0810 | 2.060 | 0.1030 | 0.2870 | +1.320 |
| AS568-005 | 0.1010 | 2.570 | 0.0700 | 0.2410 | +1.830 |
Check the cross-section before substituting: the gland depth is set by cross-section, not by inside diameter.

- Size and tolerancescomputed+compiled
bd_warehouse o-ring_parameters.csv (Apache-2.0) and bckasper3/KasperCalc oring-sizes.js (MIT), agreeing on all 349 sizes; OD computed as ID + 2 x CS
Verified against two independent open datasets agreeing on all 349 sizes; fabricated-dataset negative control passed; 21 checks total
Part computed from the standard's formulas, part compiled from agreeing public sources.
- Formula
Outside diameter
OD = ID + 2 × CS 0.0290 + 2 × 0.0400 = 0.1090 in
- Assumptions
- Dimensions are free-state, at room temperature, before installation.
- Tolerances are AS568 manufacturing limits. Compression set, swell in service fluid and thermal expansion all move the installed dimensions and are properties of the compound, not of the size.
- Dataset scope: A fabricated-dataset negative control is asserted against on every run. EXCLUDED: groove width, corner radius, diametral clearance, back-up ring widths, surface finish, all dynamic glands, the 900-series, and ISO 3601 metric sizes.

Common Questions About the AS568-001 O-Ring
What size is an AS568-001 o-ring?
- An AS568-001 o-ring has an inside diameter of 0.0290 in (0.740 mm) and a cross-section of 0.0400 in (1.020 mm), giving an outside diameter of 0.1090 in (2.780 mm).
What is an AS568-001 o-ring in mm?
- 0.740 mm inside diameter × 1.020 mm cross-section, 2.780 mm outside diameter. AS568 is an inch standard, so these are exact conversions rather than metric nominal sizes.
What is the tolerance on an AS568-001 o-ring?
- AS568 allows ± 0.0039 in (± 0.100 mm) on the inside diameter and ± 0.0031 in (± 0.080 mm) on the cross-section, measured free-state.
Which AS568 series is the AS568-001 o-ring in?
- Dash 001 is in the 001-003 band — AS568 dash 001-003, a 0.040-0.060 in cross-section. Every size in that band shares the same cross-section and therefore the same gland depth.
